In his production, Pyotr Fomenko, following the great Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, poses questions that have troubled people throughout the ages. The most important of these is how to escape the mundane and not let habit dull the sharpness of life perception? Leo Tolstoy's novel "Family Happiness" is exclusively dedicated to the private lives of the characters. The picture of the surrounding world plays only a secondary role here. The author's attention is focused on the development of the relationship between the married couple. According to the plot, a young heroine named Masha marries a close friend of her deceased father and her guardian. This man is much older than her, wiser, and, due to his age, calmer. However, after several years of marriage, Masha begins to feel bored. From the mundanity of domestic life, which for her consists of tea parties, music, budgeting, and walks in the garden, the girl escapes into the world of social life. She needs to burn brightly, living each moment of her life intensely, but has she chosen the right path? Guests of the "Workshop of Pyotr Fomenko" will find that the issues raised by L. N. Tolstoy are still relevant today. Many young people, who marry early, quickly become satiated with family relationships and set out in search of new sensations. At the first encounters with difficulties, they are ready to abandon their spouse and find a replacement. If a consumer attitude towards family prevails, we will end up with a world of "disposable" people and feelings. See even more performances on our website in the theater section.
